Schoolhouse Restaurant

The food at Schoolhouse Restaurant is amazing. The hand breaded chicken tenders were moist and tasty paired with creamacaroni & cheese. And fresh made Cole slaw left us quite satisfied. They have a nice goat farm and store so the kids had a great time.

I truly dislike leaving a bad review, but hopefully this is viewed as an opportunity for growth. My family & I have been wanting to dine here for quite some time & finally made a reservation for 7pm on a Sunday. We arrived 15 minutes prior to our reservation. Once seated, we received a complementary salad dressed with what I can only describe as a brown fruity dressing along with a bowl of coleslaw. Another table received a salad with a white dressing, which seemed odd. I won't comment on the coleslaw as I only had a small bite & am not normally a fan anyway. The salad was...odd.We didn't receive our food until a minimum of 40 minutes later even though they weren't particularly busy. We received corn, green beans, mashed potatoes, gravy, & cornbread as the sides. The only thing that tasted seasoned was the gravy. I never knew what people meant by gluey mashed potatoes until I had these. The texture was definitely off. I will say the cornbread was decent & the only thing I enjoyed eating.My husband ordered the fried chicken. It was completely devoid of any seasoning whatsoever. I ordered the salmon, but instead received the chicken Parmesan (which doesn't include spaghetti?). The waitress realized her mistake, but I ate the food anyway since I wasn't sure if I would actually get to eat if I didn't. It was just ok, not what I wanted. My son had the burger & fries. He barely pushed through half of it before deciding it was too flavorless.The waitress brought by the bill & explained we had to pay at the register. We waited & waited, made eye contact with other staff, & no one came to ring us out. I finally had enough & placed the cash on the counter with the bill & walked out, so hopefully they eventually got to it & another patron didn't take it. We will absolutely not be back unless MAJOR changes happen. Really disappointed.

4.5 stars. Really fun throwback place. I've been twice in the past few months with my husband and kids and we really like how unique it is. Pros:- price is really good for what you get. $22 for a big meal of fried chicken with a bunch of sides is fantastic these days- food itself is a throwback to my 90s childhood. I don't want that every day but it's fun to have on occasion- ambiance is different from your normal place - my kids have loved feeding the goats while they wait for food, the chalkboard, etc.Cons:- a fair amount of flies on one visit - not on the food though- service can be slow - everyone is working hard just need time to prepare the food- bathrooms actually remind me of my elementary school in the 90s.

One of my favorite restaurants. It is unique to anything else in the area. Food is brought out quick which helps turnover tables because there is not many. Usually always a wait.

If you are wanting a "family style" meal and a bit of history this is definitely a place to check out. It's not everyday you get to have a meal in a school house built in 1862. One suggestion call for reservations even if they say you don't need one when you call - make one. Get the corn fritters these were the highlight of the meal!! Choose your entree (we opted for fried chicken) the meal is served with shareable sides mashed potatoes, gravy, coleslaw, salad, green beans, cornbread, and an additional vegetable, which was corn. Everything was very good with the exception of the green beans they were lacking taste and seasoning. Service was very good and everyone was very pleasant. We will definitely be back!

I love historical restaurants and this was a gem! The food is what comfort food dreams are made of! I got the fried chicken was it was delicious. Sides include: corn bread, corn, green beans, salad, Coleslaw, and mash potatoes and gravy. I left about 2 pounds heavier

Went here as it's a DDD. Had fried chicken for entree. They bring salad, Cole slaw, mashed potatoes, corn, green beans and cornbread for everyone and it goes in a lazy Susan in the middle of the table. All the food was great. Cornbread was exceptional!

Had to wait 45 minutes after calling mid afternoon to have name put on list. Sat down to a very cold table next to window but server would not allow us to move to other table. Food came fairly quickly and we were very hungry. They had the chicken that had been sitting and was not cooked fresh to order. The potatoes, veggies and gravy was just luke warm but we were hungry and ate anyway. Never had complained much before but feel owner needed to know.

So delicious and fun! My husband and I got the butterfly shrimp and fried chicken to split. All the sides are great too! Our favorite was the cornbread!

The Schoolhouse Restaurant has a country-vibe and a friendly staff, but the prices are that of an exclusive restaurant, to be specific, the cost for three people was over $100, which was only two actual meals, an appetizer, the upcharge $14 for vegetables, due to two people sharing an entree, and three soft drinks. The portion of Salad was too small for larger parties, doubling the size would be appropriate IMHO. Nothing wrong with the food, it was tasty and the entree portions were good, the extras made it far less appealing. Please take this feedback into consideration and adjust prices to be more inline with a restaurant like Cracker Barrel, as it is closer to your competition than the prices indicate
